'In an open letter published Wednesday, around 400 scientists implored U.S.
President Joe Biden to endorse the demands of this weekend's March to End
Fossil Fuels in New York—which include halting new fossil fuel projects, ending
oil and gas drilling on public lands, and declaring a climate emergency.
Noting that "on your first day in office, you issued an executive order
pledging that it is 'the policy of my administration to listen to the science'
in tackling the climate crisis," the letter's signers lamented that "more than
two years later, it's clear that the crisis is spiraling out of control and the
policies of your administration with regard to fossil fuels fail to align with
what the science tells us must happen to avert calamity."
"With the climate crisis raging all around us—in the form of fires, floods,
hurricanes, drought, heatwaves, crop failures, and more—we call on you
directly, clearly, and unequivocally to stop enacting policies contrary to
science and do what is needed to address the crisis," the signatories added.'
